Efinopegdutide beats semaglutide at reducing liver fat in NAFLD patients
Treatment with the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)/glucagon receptor co-agonist efinopegdutide results in a greater decrease in liver fat content (LFC) relative to the GLP-1 receptor agonist semaglutide in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), results of a phase IIa trial have shown.
